HPE Q2078AN LTO-8 Ultrium 30 TB RW 20 Data Cartridges Non Custom Labeled

The HPE Q2078AN is a 20-pack of LTO-8 Ultrium rewritable data cartridges, each offering a massive 30TB of compressed storage capacity. These cartridges are engineered for long-term data retention and robust archiving within demanding, large-scale IT environments. They serve as a critical component in a comprehensive data protection strategy, providing a reliable offline, air-gapped storage tier to secure critical business data against online threats like ransomware. At the core of the LTO-8 cartridge is a Barium Ferrite (BaFe) magnetic particle formulation. This advanced media technology enables superior bit density, leading to higher capacities and ensuring the media's integrity over a 30-year archival lifespan. This makes the cartridges an economically sound choice for organizations needing to meet stringent regulatory and data retention requirements with a low total cost of ownership. Designed for seamless integration into automated tape libraries, the Q2078AN pack comes with non-custom barcode labels for immediate use. The cartridges support the Linear Tape File System (LTFS), which allows for intuitive, file-level access to data. Native hardware-based AES 256-bit encryption ensures that data remains secure both in transit and at rest, providing an essential layer of defense for sensitive corporate information.
